N.Y. State Finance Law Section 92-B
Stock transfer tax fund


1.

There is hereby established in the custody of the commissioner of taxation and finance a special fund, to be known as the stock transfer tax fund.

2.

Such fund shall consist of the revenues derived from the stock transfer tax imposed by article twelve of the tax law and all other moneys credited or transferred thereto from any other fund or source pursuant to law.

3.

The moneys received from such tax and other sources in such fund, after deducting the amount the commissioner of taxation and finance shall determine to be necessary for reasonable costs of the state tax commission in administering, collecting and distributing such tax, commencing with the fiscal year ending March thirty-first, nineteen hundred seventy-seven, shall be appropriated to (i) the municipal assistance corporation for the city of New York created pursuant to title three of article ten of the public authorities law in order to enable such corporation to fulfill the terms of any agreements made with the holders of its notes and bonds and to carry out its corporate purposes including the maintenance of the capital reserve fund and (ii) to the extent such moneys are not required by such corporation as provided in subdivision seven of § 92-D (Municipal assistance tax fund) and, after deducting the amount such commissioner shall determine to be necessary for reasonable costs of the state tax commission in administering and making distributions in accordance with the provisions of Tax Law § 280-A (Rebate for stock transfer tax paid) from the stock transfer incentive fund, to the stock transfer incentive fund created pursuant to § 92-I (Stock transfer incentive fund) to enable rebates to be made from such fund under the provisions of Tax Law § 280-A (Rebate for stock transfer tax paid) and (iii) to the extent such moneys are not required by such fund, as certified by the commissioner of taxation and finance, the balance shall be appropriated to the city of New York, for the support of local government.

4.

After the deduction of such costs of the state tax commission in administering, collecting and distributing such tax, the balances in the stock transfer tax fund so appropriated shall be distributed and paid on the last business day of September, December, March and June into the special account established for the municipal assistance corporation for the city of New York in the municipal assistance tax fund established pursuant to subdivision one of § 92-D (Municipal assistance tax fund), unless and to the extent the balances in such fund on each such payment day are not required by such corporation as provided in said subdivision seven of said section ninety-two-d in which case the balance not so required, if any, after the deduction of such costs of the state tax commission in administering and making distributions in accordance with the provisions of Tax Law § 280-A (Rebate for stock transfer tax paid) from the stock transfer incentive fund shall be distributed and paid to the stock transfer incentive fund in the custody of the commissioner of taxation and finance established pursuant to § 92-I (Stock transfer incentive fund) and unless and to the extent that the balances in the stock transfer tax fund on each such payment day are not required by the stock transfer incentive fund as provided in such § 92-I (Stock transfer incentive fund) in which case the balance not so required, if any, shall be distributed and paid to the chief fiscal officer of the city of New York to be paid into the treasury of the city to the credit of the general fund or paid by the commissioner of taxation and finance to such other account or fund as may be designated in writing by such chief fiscal officer at least ten business days prior to such last day and on each such day, the commissioner of taxation and finance shall certify to the comptroller the amount deducted for administering, collecting and distributing such tax during such quarterly period and shall pay such amount into the general fund of the state treasury to the credit of the state purposes fund therein. In no event shall any amount (other than the amount to be deducted for administering, collecting and distributing such tax) be distributed or paid from the stock transfer tax fund to any person other than the municipal assistance corporation for the city of New York unless and until the aggregate of all payments certified to the comptroller as required by such corporation in order to comply with its agreements with the holders of its notes and bonds and to carry out its corporate purposes, including the maintenance of the capital reserve fund, which remain unappropriated or unpaid to such corporation shall have been appropriated to such corporation and shall have been paid in full provided, however, that no person, including such corporation or the holders of its notes or bonds shall have any lien on such tax and such agreements shall be executory only to the extent of the balances available to the state in such fund. If the balances in such fund are not required by such corporation pursuant to the provisions of this subdivision, on each such last business day of September, December, March and June, the commissioner of taxation and finance shall certify to the comptroller the amount deducted for administering and making distributions in accordance with the provisions of Tax Law § 280-A (Rebate for stock transfer tax paid) from the stock transfer incentive fund during such quarterly period and he shall pay such amount into the general fund of the state treasury to the credit of the state purposes fund therein. To the extent such moneys are not required by such corporation, as provided in subdivision seven of § 92-D (Municipal assistance tax fund), no amount thereof (other than such amount to be deducted for administering, collecting and distributing such tax and such costs in administering and making distributions in accordance with the provisions of Tax Law § 280-A (Rebate for stock transfer tax paid) from the stock transfer incentive fund) shall be distributed or paid from the stock transfer tax fund other than to such stock transfer incentive fund in the custody of the commissioner of taxation and finance unless and until the aggregate of all payments certified to the comptroller by such commissioner pursuant to the provisions of such incentive fund as necessary to provide payments on account of rebates authorized pursuant to Tax Law § 280-A (Rebate for stock transfer tax paid) which remain unappropriated or unpaid to such fund shall have been appropriated to such fund and shall have been paid in full provided, however, that no person, including any taxpayer under article twelve of the tax law or any member or dealer referred to in subdivisions two-a and six of section two hundred eighty-a of such law, shall have any lien on this fund or the stock transfer incentive fund.

5.

In no fiscal year shall the total amount paid from the fund exceed the total collections during such fiscal year from the stock transfer tax pursuant to the provisions of article twelve of the tax law and as deposited to the credit of the stock transfer tax fund.

6.

All payments from the stock transfer tax fund shall be made on the audit and warrant of the comptroller on vouchers approved by the commissioner of taxation and finance.

7.

When all the notes and bonds of the municipal assistance corporation for the city of New York have been fully paid and discharged, together with interest thereon and interest on unpaid installments of interest, and the chairman of the corporation makes the final certification required by subdivision seven of § 92-D (Municipal assistance tax fund), the comptroller must notify the commissioner of taxation and finance that all remaining funds held in the stock transfer tax fund must be released to the stock transfer incentive fund. From that time forward, all funds previously deposited in the stock transfer tax fund pursuant to subdivision two of this section will be deposited directly into the stock transfer incentive fund pursuant to all the rules, regulations or instructions that the commissioner may prescribe, after deducting the amount the commissioner determines to be necessary for reasonable costs of the department in administering, collecting and distributing the tax imposed by article twelve of the tax law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this article, to the extent those moneys are not required by the stock transfer incentive fund for the purpose of administering and making distributions in accordance with the provisions of Tax Law § 280-A (Rebate for stock transfer tax paid), as certified by the commissioner of taxation and finance, the balance will be appropriated to the city of New York for the support of local government.
